Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device and a method for controlling the temperature of objects, in particular for cooling of consumer goods in the Confiserie, with a hollow body with openings in his coat, which is surrounded by a guide for the objects, wherein the hollow body at least one fan and this at least a tempering is associated.
  • the difference in the temperature of the cooling air to the molding temperature of the cooling material is kept as large as possible.
  • the refrigerated goods for example, fat masses, but cools much slower than the corresponding mold because of the poor heat conduction and the larger mass. Since there is usually a high level of humidity in the cooling air, condensation can form on the mold, which in turn leads to water spots on the product.
  • the present invention has for its object to develop a device of the type mentioned above, with a simple way the fastest possible temperature control of the objects can be achieved, the tempering should be as possible from all sides and the condensation is prevented.
  • the guide for the objects consists of individual carrier wings, which are hingedly connected to each other, wherein projects from at least individual support wings a transverse rib or a spacer on which or a form rests with the objects.
  • a corresponding guide preferably in the form of a ribbed chain, is formed from individual carrier rockers, from which transverse ribs or spacers project, so that the molds do not rest directly on the carrier rockers but are lifted off them.
  • the cooling air under the molds is swirled in such a way that the bottom of the mold is constantly streamed by cooling air. This leads to a homogenization and intensification of the cooling, which is a considerable advantage.
  • the shape is flown from both the top and bottom of the cooling air.
  • the molds are also to be guided laterally, for which purpose side boundaries are provided. These can sit, for example, on the transverse ribs. So that they do not interfere with each other at a deflection around corresponding deflection rollers, but form a closed lateral boundary in the case of a linear guide, they are designed as side strips in the form of a horizontal Z.
  • the side boundaries can also be offset in their height.
  • the side boundaries can also be as a continuous railing or as a kind of guardrail along be formed of the guide, which is fixed and fixed independently of the moving transverse ribs and carrier wings.
  • the gears are connected to a common drive.
  • each gear is arranged on an axis together with a respective drive wheel, wherein the drive wheels are engaged with each other.
  • only one drive wheel needs to be connected to a drive wheel via an intermediate gear, this drive wheel being arranged on a drive shaft.
  • the drive shaft is perpendicular to the hollow body, so that all drive wheels necessary for driving the guide are driven by a drive shaft.
  • a device for controlling the temperature of objects which are located in a mold 1, pallet or the like, has two hollow bodies 3 and 4 in a machine housing 2. Each hollow body 3 and 4 is surrounded by a guide 5 for guiding the molds 1, wherein the molds 1 pass through an inlet 6 into the guide 5.1 of the first cavity body 3.
  • the guides 5.1 and 5.2 circle their respective hollow body 3 and 4 helically, as can be seen in Fig. 2.
  • guide 5.1 leads a dash-dotted lines indicated straight line 7 in the upper region of the hollow body 3 for guiding 5.2 of the hollow body 4, wherein the guide 5.2 has a downwardly directed helix.
  • the guide 5.2 then opens into an outlet 8.
  • the hollow body 3/4 can, according to FIG. 2, be closed at the top by a cover or else be open.
  • a plurality of openings 10 are formed, which are also aligned helically upwards or downwards.
  • the openings 10 follow the molds 1, which is located on the guide 5.1 / 5.2.
  • a fan 11 which sucks air from the interior of the hollow body 3/4.
  • This fan 11 is followed by a tempering 12, wherein the tempering 12 is formed as a heat exchanger and an inner tempering zone 13 and an outer tempering zone 14, which are respectively flowed through by a part of the cooling circuit.
  • a liquid catcher 15 in which a baffle mat 16 is provided.
  • the guide 5.1 / 5.2 has, according to FIG. 4, a helical path 18, which circumscribes the hollow bodies 3 and 4.
  • a helical path 18 which circumscribes the hollow bodies 3 and 4.
  • two drive wheels 19.1 and 19.2 supported by bearings 20, wherein the drive wheels 19.1 and 19.2 are engaged with each other.
  • the drive wheel 19.1 is connected via an intermediate 20 with a drive wheel 21.
  • the drive wheel 21 is seated on a drive shaft 22, wherein as shown in Fig. 2, the drive shaft 22 drives a plurality of drive wheels 21 in the different floors of the guide 5.1 and 5.2 respectively.
  • the driving wheels 19.1 and 19.2 each have an axis A and B, respectively, about which they rotate. On each axis A and B also sits on a gear 23.1 and 23.2, which cooperate with a toothing 24.1 and 24.2 on a slider 25.
  • the toothings 24.1 and 24.2 are matched to their toothed wheels 23.1 and 23.2 in a curvature such that an involute-type engagement between toothing 24.1 or 24.2 and toothed wheel 23.1 and 23.2 takes place.
  • the slider 25 slides in a rail 26 which is disposed above the helical track 18, but this follows.
  • the slider 25 is part of a carrier rocker 27, which is better seen in Fig. 3.
  • a plurality of carrier rockers 27 are hinged together and thus form a transport path for the mold 1.
  • the mold is not seated directly on a rocker surface 28, but on a transverse rib 29, which rises from the rocker surface 28.
  • each side limiter 30.1 or 30.2 which, as can be seen in Fig. 5, have the shape of a flat lying Z. This ensures that the lateral limiters 30 overlap with a linear guide and thus form a closed lateral boundary for the mold 1.
  • the side delimiters 30 can gap apart, but then overlap again when they are in a straight line.
  • the fan 11 sucks the air, as indicated by the arrows, from the interior of the hollow body 3/4 and presses the air through the tempering 12.
  • the hollow body 3/4 is closed at the top, entseht in the hollow body, a negative pressure and in the entire machine housing 2 a corresponding overpressure.
  • the negative pressure in the hollow body 3/4 air is sucked through the openings 10, so that a considerable, later to be described air circulation in the individual floors of the guide 5.1 / 5.2 arises.
  • the tempering element has the inner tempering zone 13 and the outer tempering zone 14.
  • the inner tempering zone 13 is charged with a coolant which has the lowest possible temperature, but not below 0 ° C.
  • the cooling temperature of the outer tempering zone 14 is higher. This means that the water content of the cooling air condenses in particular at the inner tempering zone 13.
  • the responsible for the cooling air part of the tempering works at a higher Level.
  • the liquid catcher 15 with its baffle mat 16 is arranged between the collecting trough 17 and the tempering element 12.
  • This baffle mat collects the small droplets of condensed water, with the droplets seeping through the baffle mat.
  • Most of the air exiting from the tempering 12 flows laterally past the liquid catcher 15 and takes with it no more liquid, since it seeps into the baffle mat. Only a minor part of the air penetrates the baffle mat, but is considerably slowed down here, so that this air flow no longer has the power to collect and carry heavy droplets in the baffle mat. These heavy drops drip down into the drip pan 17. That is, with the inventive concept is achieved that the cooling air dries to the desired dew point.
  • the dried air is now guided laterally back on the walls of the machine housing 2 along the guide 5.1 / 5.2 upwards and enters there into the individual floors of the guides 5.1 / 5.2.
  • the cooling air can impinge on the bottom of the molds.
  • This soil usually has a plurality of cavities, in which there is a considerable turbulence of the cooling air, since the Cooling air also accumulates in front of the openings 10 of the jacket 9.
  • These turbulences are indicated by the corresponding arrows in FIG. 4A. That is, by this arrangement, cooling air flows in the shape from above, from below and from both sides, resulting in perfect heat release.
  • the cooling of the objects is also made uniform. This has a very positive effect on the quality of the items.
